The name on everybody’s lips is gonna be Whitney Leavitt!
The Dancing with the Stars semifinalist is officially getting the full Ariana Madix treatment — she’s heading to Broadway as Roxie Hart in Chicago.
Whitney will begin performances February 2, 2026, at the Ambassador Theatre in NYC for a six-week limited run through March 15, 2026.
This marks Whitney’s Broadway debut!

Honestly, the writing’s been on the cell block wall ever since Mark & Whitney performed their Argentine Tango to Cell Block Tango.
In fact, the official Chicago TikTok reposted with the caption:
“Whitney Leavitt as Roxie Hart when??”
Well… we have our answer.
And because I love to be boots on the ground, I’ve already secured tickets.
Stay tuned for my inevitable post-show review!
